The answer I was looking for
5/5

I found just what I needed in this E string. Currently, my daughter is starting a Suzuki violin program at the age of four. It was vital that I have a violin so I can play with her as she learns to play. I played the viola before I started renting violins, and I already had a viola and did not want to rent a violin. Even knowing that there is an E string for the viola was completely unknown to me. This was found on Amazon after I did a quick search. Having ordered it, I have received As my viola is a 15 1/8" size, it was a little concerning that this would be too large. The cord is just fine so far! I bought the high tension cord because I knew it needed to be at a high tension for the I like what I hear! I find that it sounds really good on my viola and much better than I had ever expected.

The feel and tone of the music is superb
5/5

It's simply amazing how beautiful these strings are. The E string on this string is the violin's E string, but it has been shortened to fit the You could have a 5-series computer if you have one For the viola string set provided by Helicore, you will need one of those additional strings to use with the standard CGDA strings (these do not come with the Strings high enough) that it will cut into your bridge over time otherwise.

There aren't that many choices for an E string for the Viola, but this is a very good one! For those of you who are oddballs like me, I'll mention my 5-star I am referring to an instrument that has a viola on it Helicore strings are usually not my cup of tea, but this E does a fine job
5/5

A strong and mellow sound, similar to the tone color of the A strings, but not too far in the distance. There is extra power in this version due to its high tension.

It has a reliable and durable sound and a consistent tone
5/5

This is my second attempt at String my viola once every year (regardless of whether it needs it or not. Having stretched Helicores makes everything sound consistent and does not require a great deal of tuning once they are stretched, taking about 45 minutes.

This is a great string set for student violas
5/5

The strings on this instrument are much better than the usual student strings. It is better to use Helicore for sound quality. These are excellent for student use and I would buy them again.

The sound quality is excellent
5/5

It is only with this particular string brand that my son plays the viola. We find their brand to be much better than the value brand found in our local markets.

The strings have a good balance of tuning reliability, sound clarity and articulation
5/5

They are good, stable strings at an affordable price. The tuning is very stable, and the sound is very articulate. I believe that this suits ** Update** I have been playing viola for several more years, and I have used different string brands since then. This is still a very good set of strings. A well-known manufacturer prefers them for instruments between the upper middle and upper ranges of price He is known to be a luthier in northern Europe It is in the central part of the state. * Moreover, they are relatively low-priced when compared with other kinds A tension exists. Generally speaking, they are a lot of fun.

With this A string, I am very disappointed
3/5

With this A string, I am very disappointed. A huge hemorrhage in the string was discovered while my teacher helped me fix it to my viola. I wasn't aware it was damaged until I saw my teacher putting it on my viola. Teacher said I would not be able to use it. If I played it, my finger would be cut or the musical instrument might break near the end.
